Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles How many Blaser men here?

I cant think of a single good reason to own a Blaser.

I rest my case

Your "case" is laughable.

Exactly

Sorry Blaser guy, but other rifles built today are technologically sufficient to shoot consistently good groups that will rival or possibly exceed your Blaser. Their simplicity makes them very reliable as well.

If that weren't the case, you may have had an argument.

Coopers, Nosler's, Nulas, etc. along with some mass produced rifles can be surprisingly accurate and dead nuts reliable.

Blasers are certainly fine rifles and I have nothing against them or anyone who wants to own one.

But, If you have a car with a 400 hp motor, sticking Chrome wheels on it will not help it's performance one iota.

Put some blue tape on the [bleep] thing and go hunting. Jeezus Pleezus people make stuff hard.

Yup pretty much mate, shame really. Anyhow,..... I have friends here from your part of the world ATM, which has seen the last 2 days knocking down more, food, red wine, Lagavulan(16yo) scotch, beer & training that ones system should handle...lol...& only 3 more days to go. haa
Geeeezuz I bare no grudgers to any man. So on that note. I have a 6kg free-range pig going on the weber at noon, some cold piss(aka beer) on ice, dare say another 2 bottles of 16YO will be on the table too :P . If ya in the area stop on by

Here's a couple of questions for the group, how many Professional Hunters use or have good things to say about a Blasers reliability and durability as their own personal rifle and how many more parts, moving or otherwise does a Blaser use to accomplish the same thing a conventional bolt action does?

Last year between DSC, and SCI,I personally sold aproxamately 70 R8s, roughly 20% were sold to guides , PHs and outfitters. A few of these are well known, and respected.

Would you agree that a Lexus has more moving parts than a model T?

Would you also agree that a Lexus is more dependable than a model T?

Would you rather drive a Lexus, or a model T?

Absolutly no one disputes the fact that conventional bolt actions are dependable, however I have seen controlled round rifles fail, I have seen extractors/ejectors fail on conventional bolt actions, heck there is a thread about a brand new Kimber that has feeding issues going on right now. You guys have a double set of standards, you see past problems on certain models that you use, yet make a big deal about any issues of those you do not like.

Again, an apple/oranges, sophomoric argument.

Must be a Blaser thing...

I really see your need for fowl language, and name calling, as a total lack of having any sort of valid position.

This mans opinion should never be considered, when considering to buy, or not buy a Blaser, or any other product for that matter.

Sorry, but that's not a valid argument. Can you point specifically where a Blaser does a better job regarding accuracy, feeding and or reliability than a conventional bolt action? (rhetorical question).But I take it as a tacit concession the Blaser has considerably more parts than a conventional bolt. Kimber? not me. Now how about the second part of my question and while you are at DSC why don't you ask a few PHs their opinions on the Blaser?

No, I just find your "arguments" flawed and hilarious.

You obviously have nothing better. If you want to shoot a Blaser, I'm all for it... obviously you have a financial stake in promoting them.

What I DO object to is the childish arguments regarding the 93's viability.

Again you come in with a double standard. Can you prove that the products you use are any more accurate or reliable than that of a Blaser? You can not, you base your opinion on things you read, and take note of those concerning Blasers, yet dismiss problems that you read about concerning the products you use. I have no problem with what you own and use, and am open minded when it comes to the choices you make for yourself. However you do not seem very open minded to the choices others make. All is asked is that you not muddy up the waters with unfair judgements, that you can not be absolutely sure of the correctness of.

I still would like people to take not of your fowl language and name calling. It shows your judgement is clouded, and your posted material can not be considered as pertinent.

Of course one can and it's been done. I take I must have written my second question with invisible ink. I think am done here, I don't work well with zealots. Enjoy your over-engineered, polymer clad Rube-Goldberg gizmos.

You were done a long time ago, and are just now figuring it out.

Foul language? "Sucks"... you can't answer a logical argument (you have no leg to stand on) and are reduced to shooting the messenger...

Have fun with your Teutonic, Rube Goldgerg contraption. No doubt it's necessary in a Missouri tree stand drilling 125lb deer at 60 yards.

You used fowl language in previous post in this thread, as well as name calling.

You are doing a fine job of degrading yourself, and bringing attention to the fact that most Blaser detractors are cut from the same material as yourself. Your negative tactics will sell more Blasers than, it does not.

Thanks for being so cooperative in this.
